It might feel good, it might sound a little somethin’, but damn the game if it don’t mean nothin’. -Public Enemy
OK, here we go! Hey you gabronies, do you smell what the Celts is cookin’? Sure smells good. Ooooh that smell. Can’t you smell that smell? Smells like playoffs baby, playoffs. Ray Allen. The rootinest tootinest shootinest guard in the West East. The best jump shootinest guard in basketball. Jump shooting threes at forty percent clip. I was shining my nine, you know how I do. I got a fully loaded clip, I be on that shit. Ray Ray be on that shit. Read More »

OK, here we go! Boston Celtics Draft Day. It’s finally here. The new phone book’s here! The new phone book’s here! I’m somebody now! Millions of people look at this book everyday! This is the kind of spontaneous publicity, your name in print, that makes people. I’m in print! Things are going to start happening to me now. Things are going to start happening for Greg Oden. Things are going to start happening for Kevin Durant. But will they start happening for the Celtics’ fifth pick? Here’s a look at five Celtics’ picks that things certainly did not happen for: Read More »

If life seems jolly rotten, there’s something you’ve forgotten. And that’s to laugh and smile and dance and sing. Always look on the bright side of life. -Monty Python’s Flying Circus
Public Service Announcement: OK, here we go! Whatsamatta Binky? Life got you down? I’m down. I’m really down. I’m down. Down on the ground. I’m down. How can you laugh, when you know I’m down? How can you laugh, when you know I’m down? You’re sad because your Yankees can’t seem to score runs to save their lives. Well, lighten up Francis, at least you’re not a Detroit Lions’ fan. At least you didn’t go 3-13 last year. You’re upset because your beloved little Cubbies haven’t won a World Series since 1908? Don’t worry. In every life we have some trouble. But when you worry you make it double. Don’t worry, be happy. Be happy you’re not a Lions fan. The Lions have won only one playoff game since 1957. And the next one won’t come anytime soon. Not in a blue moon. They will forever continue this swoon. Read More »

OK, here we go! The NBA Draft. Two days, baby. Two days! Two days is gonna be the day that they’re gonna throw it back to you. By now, you should’ve somehow realized what you gotta do. I don’t believe that anybody feels the way I do, about you now. I don’t think anybody feels the way I do about Sean Williams. Boston College Screamin’ Eagle Sean Williams. Booted off the Boston College Screamin’ Eagles. Booted off the Boston College Screamin’ Eagles for passing the dutchie on the leftt hand side. Suspended twice, and then booted off the Boston College Screamin’ Eagles for passing that dutchie on the leftt hand side. But according to all sources, this kid has learned his lesson. He really, really learned his lesson. John Lucas: “He worries me from the standpoint that he’s going to get a speeding ticket or a ticket for running a red light. That’s it. Take it from a man who knows.” I know things. I’m smart. Not like everyone says. Not dumb. I’m smart and I want respect! Read More »
